Being a GM guy we've found one of the best mods for us is a nice higher stall torque converter.
The GM truck guys are kinda blessed because we can use a converter from a Fbody(Camaro, Firebird). Yank who is a sponsor now stepped up and started building us truck specific converters though that allow full tow ratings and higher stalls. There are other manufactures coming out with performance truck converters from what I hear also.
I'm just wondering if anyone makes performance converters for the foreign model trucks? If not maybe one of you guys could work with Yank to come out with some new converters. :) It's really incredible what a 2600-3000 stall tc will do for a vehicle. Gains of .3-.5 seconds in the 1/4 mile are not out of line. It really makes driving an automatic alot more fun too. :nod:
